Here's an oversized picture book of a classic. It flows nicely and will be a good read aloud. The language tends to be a tad more current than the usual telling. But that is not a problem. The detailed paintings with all their patterns and color are charming until Goldie is frightened and her hair stands up on end. Somehow such a comic book image feel a little misplaced in this otherwise old-fashioned book. That said, your preschooler will probably love this version. 3 & up.
